Learning to work safely (Pre/Post) Assessment

Material Tech Sem 2

Hazard identification: Technology (Mandatory)

In Technology you will learn to assess situations and demonstrate responsible
and safe use of a range of tools, materials and techniques in different
technological environments. To achieve this you will need to identify hazards
and ways to avoid accidents.
Task: Hazards in the workshop
In this activity you will learn to identify unsafe practices when using tools and
equipment, recognise the risk involved and suggest safe working practices.
The photos below show students involved in unsafe practices in a woodwork
room. For each photo state:
What is the unsafe behaviour?
